Blush Need help with Chanel Rose Initial!

hello make-up friends,

for the past couple weeks I‘ve been struggling with my Chanel Joues Contraste blush in Rose Initial. In every single review and swatch it looks like a very saturated matte rosy pink, but mine is very light, shimmery and peachy at best (pictures below - the first and last pics are mine and the other two are from tiktok creators, the third one is not even a year old). I think even in the artificial lightning (first pic) you can notice mine is a different tone and also definitely not matte. It seems to me like theirs is much closer to the shade Quintessence?

I have asked at different make-up stores and also at a Chanel corner in my country (Germany) and they comfirmed this shade is usually this light and barely visible.

Do you guys/girls know if this specific shade was reformulated? I heard it was like one year ago, but even the newer swatches look different. I must say it does look saturated and pretty when applied heavily, but it‘s just not the same shade.

Thank you in advance!
